This part of the Chickaloon Trail System consists of three separate trails, Permante, Young Creek and the Kings River Trail. The Kings River Trail is located on the western side of the river and is rated as more difficult while the Permante Trail is located on the eastern side and is rated as easy.

The Kings River Trail eventually crosses a river to connect with Permante Trail but is not recommended due to unpredictable currents and cold temperatures. The trails are usually very muddy with numerous water crossings so come prepared.

The trails can be accessed by staging at the Kings River Bridge or the Permanente Trailhead. The Kings River Bridge offers plenty of turnaround room and is a good choice for large trailers while the Permanente Trailhead offers limited parking and is close to the highway.
